Charlotte Davidson taps into the convenience of an instant oatmeal packet for this tart and tasty dessert for two she whips up in Batesville, Arkansas during the busy holidays.

Ingredients

2 medium Golden Delicious apples, chopped
1 cup chopped fresh or frozen cranberries
Sugar substitute equivalent to 2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cold butter
1 package (1.6 ounces) instant cinnamon and spice oatmeal

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the apples, cranberries and sugar substitute. Transfer to two 10-oz. ramekins or custard cups coated with cooking spray. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3-1/2 to 4-1/2 minutes or until apples are almost tender.
In a bowl, cut butter into oatmeal until crumbly; sprinkle over apple mixture. Microwave, uncovered, on high 1-2 minutes longer or until butter is melted and topping is golden. Serve warm.

I used McIntosh apples and it was easy and delish. It was even done before I had a chance to clean up the dishes. I will make it again.
